ARTING has introduced a number of innovative connector solutions and products targeted at the rail industry and focusing on the three key benefits of weight reduction, easy handling and increasing data throughput. Weight reduction plays an increasingly important role in rail vehicle construction, and connectors can make a measurable contribution here. For trains and trams, the continuous transition from metal to plastic can reduce the weight of connector housings by up to 50% from one

l mounting and with either RS232C half-duplex or RS485 full duplex serial doors may be loaded with ASCII or s RTU protocols to enable communication with a PC or PLC. The indicator has an internal resolution of 16 x 106 and a 5 digit, 7 segment LED display has a resolution of 16,000 counts, with a three- key mechanical keyboard ng easy access for pre-programmed functions.
The WT2 weighing indicator builds upon the WT1 with connectivity via PROFIBUS as its default protocol offering the ab ility for control in more complex systems. The WT2 also features an optional Ethernet connection which comes with a 128-byte in/o
/out buffer for high-speed PC connections.
For almost any application where DIN-rail mounting is required, the WT14 weighing indicator features RS232 and RS485 serial ports and a USB device port as standard. Fieldbus options that allow interfacing with the vast majority of supervision devices include PROFINET, DeviceNet, Ethernet (10 to 100 Mbps), Ethernet IP and EtherCAT.T.

outhern Springs and Pressings Ltd (SSP), has posted a record 52% increase in export sales in their 2017/
7/18 accounts. The increase in exports contributed to the company’s increase in turnover of 35% in 2017/ also up by 80%.
Having secured more press work throughout the last 12 months, the business has continued to re-invest with a new tool design and production office. The new office will allow the team to design components using the latest CAD tool design technology which will also link directly through to the EDM and machining centre. A new air conditioning system has also been installed throughout the building.
SSP also celebrated 70 successful years of trading having opened their doors for the first time in April 1948. With the continued demand for press work, SSP purchased a further two CNC Power Presses in order to increase capacity and are planning on increasing the work space and machines in this area over the next year There are also plans to purchase new ovens and de-burring machines.
.
Tim Page, Managing Director said “We’ve had another fantastic 12 months which has seen a huge increase in demand for our press work. We will continue to invest in the business with a more modern working environment and the purchase of new machines”.
